I don't know if you can call it a rip off. A pumpkin head isn't really an original idea to begin with.
I meant an actual pumpkin for a head. Didn't the thing in that movie look more like Alien? I don't remember it having a pumpkin head.
I simply meant the sculpt of this [expletive deleted] toy in comparison to the pumpkin brain. http://rotofugi.com/toyscart/pc/viewPrd.asp?idcategory=80&idproduct=281
still no other designer vinyl with pumpkin head before sb one??? then yeah blatant rip off indeed ...fxxking [expletive deleted]. i have one [expletive deleted] by martin ontiveros. very nice colorway, but still feels wrong to have it. wishing it was a be@rbrick.
Oh I think folks knew that ... just riffing on the general idea for fun, as people are wont to do 'round here. For what it's worth, it's possible that the Q_e_e guy was "inspired" by the Skull Brain, especially given that his premier platform toy wasn't exactly original in the first place, but I don't really see a strong enough resemblance to call it a rip-off. It's not the kind of thing that would even be a blip on the radar of most Secret Base collectors. Just another platform.
